Great story, bad editor
Awesome story. There are a lot of typos and bad grammar . The author needs to get a better translator and/or editor; but other than that, I could not stop reading. I liked that the author let the story developed outside the virtual reality game as well; and , I still don't know what is going on with the main character's back story. Left a little mystery there. Can't wait for the 3rd book

Great book, could use some help in the translation. enjoyed the story line and liked the way his character progressed. can't wait to see what happens in the next book. This is one of those books that you wear out re-reading while waiting for the next book!

Fantastic storyline
I enjoy books that are set on a player in farming environment and this one just blows the others away. The main character is believable and it's set in Russia of all places. Great storyline and really hope we see more of this story soon

Good continuation of a fun story
Some grammar errors but over all enjoyable read. Can't wait until the next book. Solid character development throughout the story.

Starts out a bit slow but it picks up and leaves you wanting more with only a slight cliffhanger. Like the first book, you have to get through the typos but it's definitely worth it!

Another LitRPG and another dumb MC coming out of Russia. Maybe its a millennial thing because the MC is 24 years old, because you can tell he is acting like one in many many scenes. The way he talks with people and interacts in the real world.
The dude is getting bank rolled to play this game, he was hired to do what his boss tells him and yet he does mostly none of it. He would also be a typical noob in any mmo game because he spends most of his damn time in towns NOT leveling like his BOSS told him to do and even the freaking game administration!!
I'll give it till book 3 to see.

(picked this series up again after a long while, this is my second read through of this book)
Pretty good. Mainly, it hangs together really well.
That said... it has a slightly dark setting. There seems to be an assumption that people are generally bastards to each other, unless they get tribal and even then they only care for guildmates. I personally find this uncomfortable.
Nonetheless, it is a well written (despite some translation issues) story with good pacing and imaginative story elements.

I listened to the audio, so the translation was fine. I like the book, but Ros and other characters were so annoying! Overreacting all the time, not understanding the simplest things and conversations that would go on for like 5 minutes where neither person was listening to the other. Dialogue between Ros and Kira was especially frustrating. Loved the ending though, brought it up to 4 stars for me
I saw that book 3 on audio comes out 1/18/18, so I'll wait for that instead of reading the poor translations.

There's a lot of good things about this book, unfortunately the terrible translation makes it really difficult to get into. I know it had a similar issue in the first book, but it seems like it's even worse this time. There doesn't seem to be a single sentence without an odd or incorrect word choice or grammatical issue. So, rather than immersing into the story, a good percentage of my mind was constantly translating the Runglish into English. Mikhaylov should have had a native English speaker go in and clean up the translation before publication.

Loved the ending!
This series is a ton of fun! I particularly liked the ending of this book. Would love to game in the world created. If you are a grammar purist these books will bug you but I actually kinda enjoyed the feel they brought to the narrative 😎

WTF....
The translation.... holy cow. I'm pretty sure Google Translate should take some of the royalties. I understand that I picked up a 2.0 version on the first book, but come on... I probably spent 5-10% of my total reading time trying to figure out what something actually meant.
On the plus side, I found that if I get Marvin to use text-to-speech, I get into this suspension of belief stage since I have something with a robot voice and very little intonation reading to me, and the text makes more sense.
Anyways, the problem is that the core of the story is quite good - removing all the minor misogyny, Russian idiosyncrasies, heavy drinking for no reason and completely unnecessary plot twists (I still don't know what Siberia had to do with anything) - especially the last couple of chapters.
Which means that (un)fortunately, i'll probably have to endure through book #3.
Look, if you have nothing else to read in this genre and you really want to read something, I guess go ahead and pick this up. On the plus side, it's waaaaay better than Enigmatic Village of Nanahuatl, and that was apparently written by an English speaking author, regardless of how translated it looks/sounds like.

Good start
Even knowing that the book is translated from the Russian language, the book is still good. There are quite a few typos yet it does not take away from my enjoyment. Now I have to wait for the next book.

Liked the 'real world' story more than the game's in this one, which is weird since it is usually the other way around, but I felt that everything with the game (esp the last half) was weird and lacking so many details.

A good story, with translation issues
I respect that this is a translation, and the story was engrossing enough to pull me though, but the characters all sound like they are speaking broken English.

Was a good story made in to a ok story by some bad translation. Will read the next book to see how the storyline will turn out.

Even more fun
The editing was not the best, however I will still give this book 4 stars because I had a lot of fun reading it.

The only thing marring this book is the poor translation into English. Otherwise, it is a very good series.

Most awful translation
Interesting. But the translation and editing need a lot of work. Also the story did not finish.
A third volume is due.

Wow
That was an experience that is hard to describe. About the only comparable is the ending was like the Mad Max movie. A very visceral thing.
